On January 3, Michael Schumacher will turn 55 years old. The seven-time Formula 1 champion resides in the cozy family home in Gland, Switzerland. Back in 2014, the athlete’s manager spoke of significant improvements in his health, but then there was a long pause. Even friends chose to remain silent, adhering to family directives.

In 2018, information leaked from medical sources indicating that the care for the injured racer costs around £50,000 per week. He received treatment at various clinics, with reports mentioning medical issues related to cardiology and nerve system recovery. Discussions also included the use of stem cells, transplants, and more. It seems he has shown some improvement since then.

Ex-team manager Todt asserted that in 2020, he watched races alongside Michael, confirming that he is not only conscious but also capable of understanding what’s happening around him. Former racer Felipe Massa revealed that his racing colleague is facing a difficult and prolonged recovery phase.

With the permission of Schumacher’s family, Netflix released a documentary about him. The 24-year-old Mick, who has followed in his father’s footsteps to become a champion in Formula 2 and Formula 3, regrets that he cannot yet discuss professional matters with his father.

Corinna has openly stated that her husband has changed significantly. He is a completely different person now but is alive and undergoing rehabilitation. That’s what matters most. Michael, as she refers to her husband, always protected her and their children, and now it is their turn to do the same.

Recently, Ralph, the brother of the injured racer, inadvertently confirmed his daughter-in-law’s thoughts about his strong transformation. Mick expressed that he misses the person his father was before the accident.
